function
improves the computed solution to one of the systems of linear equations
sub(
A

Output Parameters
x
On exit, contains the improved solution vectors.
ferr
,
berr
Arrays of size
LOCc
(
jb
+
nrhs
-1) each.
The array
ferr
 contains the estimated forward error bound for each solution vector of sub(
X
).
If
XTRUE
 is the true solution corresponding to sub(
X
),
ferr
 is an estimated upper bound for the magnitude of the largest element in (sub(
X
) -
XTRUE
) divided by the magnitude of the largest element in sub(
X
). The estimate is as reliable as the estimate for
rcond
, and is almost always a slight overestimate of the true error.
This array is tied to the distributed matrix
X
.
The array
berr
 contains the component-wise relative backward error of each solution vector (that is, the smallest relative change in any entry of sub(
A
) or sub(
B
) that makes sub(
X
) an exact solution). This array is tied to the distributed matrix
X
.
work
[0]
On exit,
work
[0]
 contains the minimum value of
lwork
 required for optimum performance.
iwork
[0]
On exit,
iwork
[0]
 contains the minimum value of
liwork
 required for optimum performance (for real flavors).
rwork
[0]
On exit,
rwork
[0]
 contains the minimum value of
lrwork
 required for optimum performance (for complex flavors).
info
(global) If
info
=0
, the execution is successful.
info
 < 0
:
If the
i
-th argument is an array and the
j-
th entry
, indexed
j
 - 1,
 had an illegal value, then
info
 = -(
i
*100+
j
); if the
i-
th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then
info
 =
-i
.
